When you find the one… 22

God I'm so tired, I can't make it but I have to help Kimmie. Shego thought as she ran through the streets of Prague. I should've fed before I got Kimmie and myself into this situation. It's too late now though. She swallowed hard, her throat dry and her body weak as she ran. It was more of a strain to stimulate her muscles, forcing herself to keep on going. She didn't even know if she had enough energy to ignite her plasma. There was no time to feed, she had to find Kim, and she had to save her. Her mind was willing though her body wasn't working along. She was slowing down, she could feel it. Her vision became fuzzy but she refused to give up now.

To her surprise she had managed to catch up with Fino's companions. It worried her, however, that Fino was nowhere to be seen. One didn't have to be a genius to figure out that he had gone after Kim himself. Though she didn't know whether to be happy or exhausted by the fact that she had caught up with his servants. She had to stop them, one was easy but two was going to be hard.

"Here goes nothing." She sighed and she ignited her plasma. A sigh of relieve escaped her lips when she discovered she was still able to use it. She kept running, her plasma intensifying as she closed in on the two vampires. Timing it correctly she shot two blasts at the vampires, knocking them down with her green flames. She licked her dry lips and stopped as she reached the two vampires on the ground. "Surprise, surprise, Shego is still alive." She cheered with a grin on her face.

The vampires jumped to their feet and shared a look. They hissed at Shego and before she could even blink the two tackled her. She fell to the ground, the two vampires beating in on her as she protected herself from their blows. She managed to kick one away, launching him into a wall of a building. As soon as she had gotten rid of one, she managed to get to her feet again. Her plasma flared again and she motioned for the both of them to attack.

Stepping through the bricks that had crumbled down, the blond-haired vampire attacked along with his almost white-haired companion.

Shego smiled slightly, plasma-blasting the white-haired vampire in the gut and punching the other in the face. Her smile, however, faded when she noticed that her plasma had gotten weaker. Inwardly she cursed and she ducked, avoiding a super-powered fist aimed for her head. As she dodged the fist she managed to sweep one of the vampires from his feet. She immediately focused on the blond-haired vampire. She kicked; she punched and used her claws, beating him up severely.

His white-haired companion jumped her and she managed to throw him off of her back. She refocused on the blond, knowing that his end was near. Though as she fought through her exhaustion, she wondered if Kim was doing okay.

The red head let out a deep gasp as she was thrown into a brick-wall. She fell to the ground, bricks tumbling down from the now damaged wall. She coughed as the debris surrounded her and she slowly got to her feet again. She looked into the dangerous eyes of Fino, her own gaze stern and determined. Her lips curled upwards and she pushed back a lock of her red hair. She crouched slightly as Fino got closer, their eyes still locked. Her green eyes narrowed slightly and she took in a deep breath, preparing herself for a heavy battle.

He launched himself at her with an impressive roar and she acted immediately. She grabbed onto his wrists, spun him around and this time it was his turn to meet the wall she had just gotten to know. He immediately regained his composure, attacking her again and landing a hit in her face, leaving deep cuts in her right cheek.

Her right hand immediately shot up to her cheek as she felt the sting of the cuts.

"You're gonna regret that." She stated and with the wave of her hand the pavement started moving. She pulled her hand back, pulling the pavement from underneath Fino's feet towards her. Her hand shot forward again and she pelted the man with the bricks of the pavement. The bricks came raining down on him hard, hitting him against the head and nearly breaking his wrist as he held is arm up to shield himself from the bricks.

With a sweep of his arm and a mighty roar all the bricks flew across the empty alley and fell to the ground loudly.

"You can control elements, how interesting." He said with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Yeah well you'll be surprised by my powers," Kim started and she lowered her hands to her sides. "Because I know for a fact that my powers have surpassed yours." She said calmly, almost daring him to go full power on her.

"We'll see about that." He grunted in reply and the fight was on again. Their fists collided; she dodged his kicks and swept him off of his feet by kicking at his ankles.

Kim raised her hand, burying him within the ground entirely. Her hands met in front of her face and she forced the ground together as her hands clamped around each other. Though as she tried to squeeze the life out of him, his hand popped up out of the ground. His claw buried itself into the pavement and suddenly the ground opened up in a cloud of debris as if it had exploded.

He came crawling out of the hole angrier then before, coughing loudly as he rose to his feet again.

"Hmm it was a good thing Shego left me." He said thoughtfully and he eyed Kim appreciatively.

"Don't say a word about her." Kim warned and she slipped into her fighting stance again. "She's a wonderful vampire." She added and Fino simply chuckled at the statement.

"Is that why she's dead right now?" He asked and Kim looked at him in shock for a few seconds.

"She's not dead," She said with a grin on her face. "You think she's dead but in fact you probably just pissed her off. Though you won't get a chance to find out, seeing as you will be the one who is going to be dead in a few minutes." Kim challenged and this brought a slight frown to the yellow-eyed vampire leader.

"We'll see about that," He said and Kim's eyes widened as he started glowing. Slowly a red, almost fire-like glow started emitting from his body, getting brighter and brighter.

"Let the fight begin." He said as he was fully engulfed by red flames and he attacked.

Shego grunted as a knee was connected with her stomach, damaging the wound that was already there. She felt it rip open even further and for a second she felt like she could no longer breathe. Her hands went down to the wound and she clutched it softly as blood started pouring again. She could not bear anymore blood loss; it was too much for her. She started coughing up blood, her fingers tainted by crimson. Though it did not stop her from defending herself.

With her plasma she fended off the vampires and she managed to land a few good hits despite her injury. Though as she plasma-blasted the vampires and fended them off, she felt herself almost slip into unconsciousness. She almost lost her balance, forcing her muscles to tense up. Her plasma started flickering, slowly dying out as she managed to keep her balance. Her breathing was heavy and she looked like she had gotten the beating of a lifetime. She felt like that as well. There was no denying there, she felt completely spent. Her wound couldn't heal up, she was hungry and her powers were slowly starting to fail. Her body was shutting down in order to save itself, though it wasn't the right time for a shut down.

"Gotta keep… going for.. Kimmie." She breathed and she raised her hand, grabbing the blond vampire's face and sending a wave of plasma into his face. I can't keep this up much longer. She thought as her plasma now refused to even ignite. She was completely out of power, even with her mind she could no longer defend herself. She was drained, mentally and psychically.

"I'm sorry." She murmured and she sagged to her knees. "Kim."

The red head let out a feral scream as she pushed Fino around by using air. Her hands swept around wildly, giving him no chance to regain his normal footing. She knocked him into a wall, pushed him to the ground and blasted him backward by controlling the air around them. He spun as he was launched up into the air and with a sudden outburst of red flames he broke free from Kim's control.

He landed neatly on his feet, his flames still burning brightly. The flames suddenly erupted, blasting towards Kim like a tornado of flames. She stepped backwards, holding up her hands in defense as the sea of red flames engulfed her. The flames twirled around her, singing her clothes slightly as they came closer and closer. The tornado of flames slowly closed in on her and she started to panic.

In a moment of fear her hands shot out to her sides, arms stretched completely. As she stretched her arms the flames started backing up and that's when she realized she could control Fino's fire. A triumphant smile appeared on her face and she slowly started moving towards the yellow-eyed vampire. Her hands shot forward and the red flames were directly blasted back towards the owner.

Fino blocked the flames, simply waving them away with a single hand.

"You're strong," He said and his fire started burning again. "But you have yet to discover the full capacity of your own powers. I, however, have complete control of my flames. See, unlike Shego my flames can seriously harm someone, I doubt that she can achieve a lot with her puny green flames." Fino spoke and he chuckled by the mere thought of Shego's powers.

Though what he didn't know was that he was slowly pissing Kim off more and more.

She could feel her anger rise with every word he spoke about Shego. She knew she was close to snapping and something inside her told her to just completely finish the guy off. She only killed if necessary and this was necessary. She had also seen what Shego could do with her green powers. It wasn't something that could be taken lightly. She had seen Shego kill, no, vaporize vampires with just her powers. It was impressive, to say the least.

Shego would've kicked his ass if she had been here right now. She thought and her eyes narrowed in anger. I should kick his ass while I'm here! Her mind screamed and she was finally sure of it. She was going to make the bastard take back his words and she was going to kill him. She was going to undo the world from his presence for good. She owed it to herself but especially to Shego. For Shego. Was her last thought before she threw herself into the battle again.

They went hand to hand, his red-flamed engulfed hand against her element-controlling one. Though as she was growing stronger and better, Shego was going in the opposite direction.

The dark-haired vampire could no longer force herself to get up. She had completely fallen to the ground and could only endure the torture of the two vampires of her enemy clan. She got kicked in the stomach, over and over again. A heavy boot connected with her head, giving her, what she reckoned, a concussion. She felt 2 of her ribs break and blood was now pouring out of several injuries.

Her eyelids felt heavy and she tried to keep them from closing. Though keeping her eyes open wasn't a very easy thing either. Even the small things like breathing and blinking were becoming heavy as attack after attack rained down on her.

"Not so tough now are we?" The blond vampire sneered at her and she wheezed in pain as he stepped on her hand. She felt the bones in her hand snap and she bit her lip to stop the scream that was rising up in her throat. Everything was aching, from her bones to her skin. She could feel her head pounding and the wounds that the vampires had caused were throbbing. Her body was protesting underneath the massive pain as it tried to heal but did not get the chance.

"I thought you were one of the strongest vampires alive?" The white-haired vampire questioned and his boot connected with her head again. "I don't know why Fino was so afraid of you, you're nothing!" He said and he laughed along with his companion as Shego squirmed in pain.

"Y-you w-wait and see!" She protested weakly. "I'll get you for this, you'll regret you ever laid a finger on me." She groaned and she squeezed her eyes shut as another jolt of pain ran through her tortured body.

"I don't think you'll live long enough to make us regret this." The blond vampire replied and the laughter of the two vampires reached her ears once again.

"Yeah, I doubt you'll even live long enough to see the morning." The white-haired vampire taunted and Shego looked up at him with a death glare. "You probably won't even see your precious red head anymore. I wonder who will be dead first, you or the red head." And this time Shego growled at the pair of vampires. Despite her tired and aching body she was getting angrier by the minute. Even though she couldn't do much she felt like she had to rip something or in this case a pair of vampires, into pieces. If I had the strength for it.

As Shego grew weaker with every hit, Kim grew stronger with every hit. As she fought she discovered how to use her power in more than one way. Her control became more accurate and she managed to land quite some hits on the so-called vampire leader. Though she understood why Shego had a rough time beating him up. He was fast and his strength was unbelievable now that he had revealed all of it. She could understand that in a tortured and hungry state someone would get a serious beating. It made her admire Shego even more and thoughts of the woman brought tears to her eyes right in the middle of her fight.

Through the kicks and punches she managed to land she used her ability to bring him down even more. He was swept around by the wind she controlled; he was beaten by the earth she could move with her own hands. His hands were buried within the ground, leaving him defenseless. She grinned and before he could break free her fist connected with his nose. It cracked loudly and a spray of blood erupted from the now broken nose. Angrily he freed his hands in a bright red explosion and blasted her to the ground a few meters down the alley.

"I've had it with your games little girl." Fino growled as he stepped in front of her. He looked down at her, his yellow eyes glowing dangerously. "If you won't be my bride so be it but this will be the last moment of your pathetic life." He threatened and she snorted at his comment, making his red flames flare aggressively.

"You can't kill me and you can't kill Shego either." Kim commented casually and Fino extinguished his flames. He kneeled by Kim's side, his face inches removed from her own.

"I only have to kill you, Shego is nearly dead right now. That's one concern less and I will kill you because I CAN kill you." He hissed into her ear and she snapped her head away.

"You're lying, she isn't dead, she isn't even close to being dead. She's the strongest vampire I know, no one could kill her." Kim replied angrily and she jumped to her feet, backing away from the yellow-eyed vampire leader. He simply chuckled deeply as Kim denied everything, the tears and concern visible in her eyes.

"Tsk, tsk, is that doubt I feel? I can assure you, my servants are dealing with her right now. Her life force has been drained; her powers don't work anymore. She is left defenseless and if you get a chance to see her, which I rather doubt, you could see it for yourself. Your beloved dark-haired vampire is weak, she is just trying not to beg for her life." Fino spat at Kim as he too rose to his normal height again. They stood face to face and Kim was holding back the tears, trying to convince herself that Shego was left unharmed. She wanted to, no, she did believe that she was going to see Shego again. She knew that the vampire she had come to respect and admire so much was still alive and kicking ass.

"She's weak, you're much stronger than she is. You're too good for her, she isn't worth your time." The vampire said as though he was trying to convince Kim.

"Stop it." Kim muttered and her gaze slipped to the ground.

"You could do wonderful things if she is out of your way." Fino said with a wicked smile on his face.

"Stop it, right now." Kim said a bit more persistent this time, her eyes snapping up to meet his. They stared at each other, her eyes wet from the tears and still narrowed with anger.

"You my dear would be the perfect wife. She, she would never reach my standards. Her will is strong but is easily broken as well. She has no determination and no respect for others. She only thinks of herself." He commented and he took another step towards Kim. He raised his hand, tracing the cuts on her cheek. Her eyes never left his. "But you, you are perfect. You are strong, you're a warrior and you deserve so much better." He said and she smacked his hand away.

"What, like you?" She questioned angrily.

"Exactly, someone like me. Someone who will respect you for who you are. You're a gorgeous creature and Shego… Has failed as a vampire. She's a failure of nature. She's hideous compared to you." He sweet-talked. Little did he know that he was now getting the opposite desirable effect.

The moment he told Kim Shego was a failure something completely snapped inside of her. Her feet slid apart just the slightest and her hands clenched into fist. He finished his sentence and somewhere within her she felt a burning feeling she had never felt before.

"Shego," She spoke through clenched teeth and she pushed Fino backward with one hand. "Is not," She said and a light glow formed around her body. "Hideous!" She yelled and she too erupted in bright reddish-yellow flames. Her eyes held the same aggression as her flames and the fierceness of it all made Fino stumble back in shock. "She is a wonderful vampire!" She yelled and she attacked him with her fire. A punch against his jaw, powered by her newly found powers. "She is stronger then you'll ever be!" She added and she blasted him to the ground with an outburst of her flames.

She came to a stop in front of him, looking down into his yellow fear filled eyes.

"She isn't dead, she's a gorgeous being." Kim snarled at the man. "And this is for her!" With a scream of anger, her eyes bright, she discharged in full power. A gigantic fire whirl erupted from the red-haired vampire; blasting up towards the sky and burning the vampire leader as it twirled around Kim's body.

Fino's pained yell filled Kim's ears and she was determined to keep on going until he could no longer yell. The fire whirl twirled around her, growing in strength and heat as it lit up the dark Czech-Republic sky. She didn't care whether everyone could see it or not. She was dead determined to kill the vampire that had spoken filth about her dark-haired lover. His screams finally stopped and when Kim's anger had subsided partially it became clear that there wasn't a molecule left of the vampire. The fire around her died out, her breathing heavy as she saw no sign of the former vampire leader anymore. The ground around her had been burned as well, leaving her standing on a round platform surrounded by a huge channel.

She let out a deep breath and fell to her knees on the piece of ground she had been standing on.

"I did it." She whispered a small smile of joy forming on her face. "I did it!" She cheered a bit louder this time. She started laughing, relieved that it was finally over. Though her laughter died out when a bright green light flashed into the sky. A green dome of plasma whirled around for a split second, before it died down again. Kim didn't have to think twice about whom had caused it. It was Shego and she suddenly felt like crying again. "I'm coming!"

She jumped to her feet and ran out of the alley, running towards the direction of where the green plasma dome had erupted.

Tiredly Shego lowered her head to the pavement of Prague. Her last bit of powers had been in that dome and it had destroyed the two vampires completely. They had taunted her and tortured her just a bit too long. Somewhere she had found the power she needed and she finally snapped, sending both of the vampires into oblivion. She sighed heavily as she lay spread on the pavement.

She heard footsteps coming closer and suddenly her senses were overwhelmed by a fragrance she knew all too well. Tired she raised her head slightly to see Kim running towards her.

Worried, the red head slid to her knees in front of Shego and she pulled the woman into her arms. She lay Shego's head in her lap and looked down at the severely beaten and tired woman.

"Shego." She gasped and she placed a hand upon said woman's cheek. The woman managed to flash a small smile at the red head and her eyes slowly fluttered shut. "Shego! Don't die on me! I'll get you out of here! I'll make you better! You can make it!" Kim said desperately and she held the dark-haired vampire close in the middle of the street, tears rolling down her cheeks.

Aaw what a dramatic ending! Shego is like dying! Kim wants to save her and I don't know if she can actually save her! O_o I'll try to rescue Shego and if I manage to do so.. you'll see it in the next chapter of course! Nobody wants her to die right? Right! So.. Kim is like uber powerful! She totally kicked ass! And that fire whirl and the green plasma dome were awesome! Or well they would've been if it had happened in a movie.. Now you just gotta use your imagination. In my head it looked awesome ^^

Anyway let's get to the next chapter and see if I or Kim, can save Shego!

Yours truly,
